Stem broccoli, often referred to as broccolini or baby broccoli, is a hybrid vegetable created from traditional broccoli and Chinese broccoli. It features slender, edible stems and small florets, offering a mild, slightly sweet flavor with a hint of pepper. Native to Japanese cuisine, stem broccoli is now widely used in stir-fries, salads, pastas, and grilled dishes for its versatility and delicate texture. A nutritional powerhouse, stem broccoli is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, offering support for immunity, skin health, and bone strength. It's also a good source of fiber, aiding digestion, and contains phytonutrients that may help reduce inflammation. Low in calories yet packed with antioxidants, it’s an excellent choice for those seeking nutrient-dense foods. However, steaming or sautéing is recommended to preserve its beneficial compounds, as overcooking can reduce its nutritional value.
